The card in the tarot deck you are probably calling the "Joker" is actually called a "Fool" or "Excuse", and it isn't always a trump (it depends on the game; in Type II games it is the XXII of Trumps but in Type I games it is a card you can play at any time even if you are normally required to follow suit, but you will automatically lose the trick). (Also, tarot cards may be Latin-suited, which would be difficult to do with these small tiles; still, the French-suited cards can have correspondence to Latin suits: spades to swords, clubs to rods, diamonds to money, hearts to cups.) Still, in the standard (poker) deck, sometimes two jokers are added, so it would be useful to add it even if not making a tarot deck (in Euchre, it is the highest trump; in Yomi, they are used to break an opponent's combo). --Zzo38 (talk) 11:34, 27 July 2013 (MDT)
